2.4 Flashing

• Booting from eMMC (Example: sg2002_reCamera_0.0.1_emmc.zip)

  • Install windows driver: CviUsbDownloadInstallDriver.zip
  • Unzip the CviBurn_v2.0_cli_windows.zip package.
  • Unzip the package generated by Section 2.3, for example: ./output/sg2002_recamera_emmc/install/soc_sg2002_recamera_emmc/sg2002_reCamera_0.0.1_emmc.zip
  • Execute the following command in Windows (use [-m xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx] to configure the Ethernet MAC address): usb_dl.exe -c cv181x -s linux -i ..\sg2002_reCamera_0.0.1_emmc [-m xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx]

• SD Card recovery (Example: sg2002_reCamera_0.0.1_emmc_recovery.zip)
